Pattern advice

Hevi-13 #7 in 12 ga factory full at 40 yds. Fairly stiff wind at my back. Suggestions on how to proceed? After market choke or keep with the factory for birds that are closer?

I personally wouldn't be satisfied with that pattern. I'd buy another choke. Lots of good ones to choose from.

New choke for sure. Double check it after the new choke as well to make sure it hits dead on

I shoot hevi13 7s 3 inch out of a remington 1187 with a rhino .660 and can put 45 pellets in the head and neck at 50 yards all day. Try that. I know the rhino is pricey but it's a great choke

You need a choke bad I have a 835 that will put 200+ # 5s in the 10 ring all day long.

Like others said gotta shoot a big piece of paper to know for sure. I've had better luck with fed. Heavy 7 if I wanted to stick with factory full. That's one place where the FCW can pay off. I'd probably shoot the Win. Longbeard with a factory full as well.
